Metamerism.  The print looked greenish-blue.  Previously, under
tungsten, daylight, even fluorescent, I had seen this print as pretty
neutral.  The gallery owner and her assistant looked at it.  The
assistant told me not to worry; that this was a common problem for
inkjet prints.  I was pretty embarrassed.
